Need this to stop

[Virtualshiner]

Hi
I own a G-Rated site and I keep getting members signing up with email address at sexpusik.com and other sites like that and post threads advertising things, well that are not G-rated at all.

I have installed NoSpam! the mod for the text but they are all addresses and real people.
Is there anything I can do to stop these coming? They are also all using different IP so it isnt possible to do that.

Thanks

Try the Spam List here:

Make sure you remove any domain names that your users might be using as you may have problems with new users registering..

Good Luck,
Val.

All my new registered users go into the Registered Users group and are moderated. Then I have a promotion system that after their successful first post or x days, they get moved to the Registered Users - No Moderation group. This has worked very well to keep spam off our site.

why not just blacklist the email ;)

This might work as well, but I don't know if it works with 3.7.

Basically just prevent new users from posting links until a decent threshold where your mods can catch the account and ban them.
